About this talk

🌟 Session Overview 🌟

Session Name: The Definitive Answer to Measuring Developer Productivity
Speaker: Roy Wasse
Session Description: Are you a good Java developer? What makes a good developer? And how can we measure this?

If you ask Oracle they'll say OCP (Oracle Certified Programmer), which means that you know when the compiler makes those red squiggly lines in your IDE disappear.

If you ask FAANG companies it means you can balance a binary tree on a whiteboard.

All of these methods involve some knowledge and memory, but have very little to do with actual day-to-day programming, technical skill, problem solving and creativity. And.. don’t you think it’s annoying you have to take all these technical tests even though you’ve been coding for many years?

In this talk Roy Wasse describes a long journey to find a better way to test software development skills then ended up in a model based on scientific research. This model is able to measure actual coding skills in an accurate way, in a realistic environment. Demo included. Roy is currently working with the (international) Foojay.io community to use these measures and set up a more realistic certification process.
